Classification according to ICD-10

ICD-10 online (WHO version 2019)

The Kraniometaphysäre dysplasia is a very rare congenital skeletal dysplasia with the main criteria of a cranial hyperostosis and developmental disorders of the metaphyses .

The syndrome was distinguished from Pyle syndrome in 1954 by WPU Jackson and coworkers .

distribution

The frequency is given as less than 1 in 1,000,000, around 70 patients have been described so far.

Cause and classification

Two forms can be distinguished according to inheritance and the underlying genetic mutations :

Clinical manifestations

Clinical criteria are:

  • Manifestation in infancy , decreasing or absent in adulthood
  • Increasing hyperostosis and sclerosis of the cranial and facial bones with a prominent forehead
  • Bony nasal bulge with restriction of nasal breathing
  • Hypertelorism
  • Hyperplasia of the lower jaw
  • Cranial nerve failure , especially of the facial nerve , occasional visual disturbances, hearing loss, disturbance of the sense of smell

diagnosis

The main focus of the diagnosis is the x-ray of the skeleton.

Typical findings are:

  • Hyperostosis of the front occipital and the lower jaw
  • Hyperplasia of the nasal bone
  • Dolichocephalus
  • Disturbance of tooth development
  • Sclerosis of the base of the skull with congestion of the sinuses
  • Abnormal configuration of the metaphyses of the long tubular bones , diaphyseal compression in the infant , later metaphyseal Erlenmeyer flask-like expansion of the tubular bones with thinned cortex , especially near the knee joint on the thighbone
  • Inconspicuous spine and pelvic bones

Differential diagnosis

Among other things, the Lenz-Majewski syndrome must be differentiated .

treatment

Surgical corrections of the narrowing of the nasal passages are available for therapy.

There is an increased risk of obstructive sleep apnea .
